Police: 15-year-old hospitalized after being shot in Montgomery County, DA's office investigating

An investigation is underway after a teenager was injured in a Narberth shooting on Wednesday night, according to the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office. 

The DA's Office says a gun was discharged by juveniles inside a home in Narberth, leaving one injured with a non-life-threatening injury. 

A letter sent to the Lower Merion School District Community and obtained by FOX 29 said students from the district may have been involved. 

"The nature of that involvement remains unclear at this time, as the investigation into the incident is ongoing," Superintendent of Schools Khalid N. Mumin wrote. "While we do not have details about what occurred, we do know that any violence in our community is of great concern to everyone."
